taking an example of a door attached to hinges.....torque is defined over here when force is applied perpendicular to the side of the door. And it is said that when force is applied anywhere else it is not possible....(i.e is other than the 2 sides of the door) is it true?

i guess b'coz torque acts maximum wen the moment arm is more.
so it will b more effective wen applied at the 2 ends.

if it is so then what about when force is applied with an angle  on the lateral side(i.e the side opp. to the hinges)

torque=r X f
if they are perp. it will be max,othewise also it will exist....
at angle 0 it will be zero....
